Marlin Mania is our first official event as a team. This mock meet is a time trial, so that coaches know how to place swimmers in future meets. We suggest that swimmers compete in all events they may swim in this summer so that we have times on file. We MUST have times for your swimmer if they want to participate in regular dual meets.

Warmups will be at 7:30 am and are required. The meet will start at 8:30am.

About Marlin Mania

There are a few key differences between Marlin Mania and our regular season swim meets:

• Marlin Mania is only our team; no opposing teams.
• There are no relays at Marlin Mania.
• Swimmers can choose more than 3 events; please sign your swimmer up for any event that they might be interested in swimming during the season. They must have a seed time to enter future meets.
• We do not DQ (disqualify) swimmers from events during Marlin Mania. The important thing is to get the swimmers' times. They can continue improving their stroke technique in practice throughout the season.
• Swimmers will sit on the pool deck in their age groups with their designated Age Group Parent.

There are some things that are the same as other swim meets:

• We need our volunteers and officials to make sure the meet runs smoothly. This is also a practice run for the volunteers. The Job postings for volunteers is posted on the website under schedules. The meet will start at 8:30AM (TENTATIVE) so all volunteers need to be in position by 7:00am or whatever time is posted on your sign up sheet (TENTATIVE). *If you signed up to be an age group parent, please be ready @7:20am* (TENATTIVE). ALL volunteers report to the check in table.
• No parents or spectators are allowed on deck unless you have a volunteer position that requires you to be on deck. Otherwise, you can view the meet from the gallery stands. NO FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY is allowed since it interferes with the race starting equipment. You can take pictures but make sure your flash is off.
• Swimmers should be on deck in their designated area NO LATER THAN 8:00 am (TENTATIVE), so that they can warm-up before the start of the meet and get their event information from the Age Group Parent.
